Hi can some one please help with an electrical problem on my 93 Bentley Brookland.
I can start the car and all is ok but as soon as I indicate using the stalk the rev counter, amp meter switch off and the battery warning light comes on. As soon as I place the stalk in the central position after a second everything starts to work obviously not the indicators.
The hazard lights work ok and cause no problem I have fitted a second hand indicator stalk but still the same happens any ideas or contact details for help.

Thanks all for the advice, on investigating the problem I went to the boot area because I remember fitting a new bulb holder in the indicator on the O/S rear I pulled the panel away from the bulb holder and the problem seems to be now ok so I wonder if the panel when fitted was touching the bulb holder causing the problem.
Another issue is I have a heavy Amp discharge causing the battery to go flat in a couple of days I used a meter and discovered that the fuse when removed from the rear boot area on the O/S the bottom one stopped the drain does any one know what this fuse controls working on car at moment. Electrics are never easy.
